There are several ways a new MailMan user can be created:
| 1 | Admin registration A suitably authorised user can log into the front end of the website and select menu option "Create MailMan user". This is the recommended option,, and is described in section 04.4 How To: Create a new user |
| 2 | Self registration From the front end, anyone can create themselves User records by selecting menu option "Register for emails". When they have given their real name, Preferred name and Group, they will need to validate their email address and choose a password. (When the software is installed, this option may or may not be activated). |
| 3 | For the back end: MailMan Users From the screen that lists all existing Users, at the top of the screen is an Add button that allows you to create a new User. You can then allocate it to List(s) as required. |
| 4 | By Data Import When processing a file downloaded from the Insight Hub, a pair of User records will automatically be created if one is not already present. |
| 5 | Manually from the admin interface From the Home Dashboard that is shown when you log on to the back end, by selecting Users > Manage you are shown a list of all existing Joomla Users. At the top of the screen is an Add button that allows you to create a new Joomla User, but if you use this, no MailMan User will be created so you will have to add that separately. |
